Stereo out - into a EB6165 stereo pan pedal.
This splits the signal so that I can pan between the Piezo and Mags. I run the Piezo to an AER acoustic amp and the mags to my tube amp of choice - either my Marshall/ Fender Blues Junior/Mesa F50 combo or my newly acquired 5 watt Wem Clubman combo

A Y cable like this?

I see no reason as to why that set up wouldn't work.

Just a tip... The Peavey Delta Blues Tube amp {15" speaker} is a fantastic acoustic amp. In fact its mentioned in the user Manuel.
Big secret I guess......
I use 2 cables out, one to each amp. I have not tried what has been suggested.
Good post, I'm going to try the Y cable.

Yes Spud that´s the idea, currently I use my P***** Fly Deluxe with Y cable to one Ashdown AAR3 and Randall RM50. Recently I bought JP6 w/piezo (had one without) and I intend to use it instead of the P*****...better PU and piezo 
.
I have never tried the Delta blues with acoustic...interesting.

Let us know how you get on. I love the Piezo on EB guitars I wish all mine had one ha!
Still, 2 out of 5 is ok

I personally use 2 cables on my ASS
One for the magnetic
One for the piezo
I take advantage of the built in switch to mix the signals

I use a Stereo A/B/Y switch box to make it easy to go back and forth between mags and piezo. It's made by Startouch pedals.
Stereo cable into the switcher then 2 cables out: one to guitar amp, other to PA for the piezo. Switch on the guitar always stays in the middle position and then you just use the ABY to go back and forth or combine the mags/piezo. startouchpedals: Startouch:Stereo AB+Y Pedal System
I also use a EBMM splitter box for gigs where I don't need to switch as much.

It is very easy to convert a direct box into a direct box/splitter by replacing one of the mono input jacks to a stereo jack and rewire in a slightly different way. I used to use a separate splitter box, but decided it takes too much space on my pedal board. Below is my converted direct box (you probably don't need the piezo FX loop):

I've used a few different methods.
Currently, I'm using the SR-EX expander module in my Peterson Stroborack to do the splitting and have a stereo cable from the guitar to the tuner. From there, I can use the Peterson's built-in DI, or run a cable to my acoustic amp. My preference is the amp because it sounds so much better than a DI, but in a pinch at a gig I have the option at least.
I've also used a Switchcraft SC600 splitter as well as an A/B/Y box.

I have Radial Switchbone on my pedalboard but I intend to simplify my rig (go from my rather big pedalboard to more lightweight TC Nova system), only use 2 volume pedals to change from electric to acoustic (or both at same time) and have the switch on the JP in middle position...

Ok, this weekend I played two gigs with my new JP6 and... Wow! This guitar is amazing
Great news.
How did you run your Piezo?

Nice one - glad to hear that the acoustic sound was nailed.
I have a JP6 with piezo, and I usually use a stereo Y-cable so that the magnetic signal goes to my Axe-fx and piezo signal goes to PA via a preamp. This works fine, but last time in rehearsal I had to use two mono cables instead of my stereo cable, and when using the magnetic pickups there were annoying humming coming out. Any idea what might cause this?

How much would it be to install a piezo set up?
